Just remember that if you're thinking too much about a Fed question, you'll most likely get it wrong. Take the simple answer and don't read anymore into it than is right there in front of you.

As for #68, see Rule 2-31-9. The rest I think you answered for yourself. And don't beat yourself up over 95/99. I only wish more of our members would earn a score like that.

You have to take the tests for what they say. This is why many of those answers you got were wrong. You cannot read into these tests and what they say. Just take the statements or questions for what they are.

Peace

I did. It talks about linemen.

Again, thinking too much.

Question 68

See also 2-24-2
an offensive player is on his line of scrimmage when he complies with the postion requirements of a lineman.

By using both of these rules question # 68 is true.

Do you not consider an end a lineman?

I don't.

If the rulesmakers do, then fair play to them.

Everything else is so freaking explicit, I'm surprised they didn't spend a page defining what the word "is" is.

An "end" is a "lineman". He's the end lineman!

Or the lineman on the end of the line, if you prefer. The other linemen would be considered interior linemen, I suppose.

Think of a wideout who is "on the line"- one of the required seven guys on the line. Like others have said- the rules say for an offensive player to be on his line of scrimmage, he needs to comply with the postion requirements of a lineman.

Okay, fair enough!

All A or K players are either linemen or backs unless they are a mugwump.

Wideout, splitout, X, Y , tight end, tackle, guard, and center are all terms made up by some coach or announcer to differentiate one lineman from another. The same can be said for backs (slot, flanker, Z, wing, quarter, half, full, tail, I-, up, holder, punter, kicker)
